Sorry this one was easy.
Aww you read the story I wrote last summer didn't you!
I can't reveal my sources, and it's been difficult to get confirmation of parts of this story, but this is what I've heard.
- The mage that is building the SC masks was riding his unicorn to work last week when he was jacked up by a band of renegade Keebler elves.
- The unicorn fell on him so he couldn't use any spells and the elves messed him up pretty bad. (He builds optical masks so his specialty is Illusion - do I have to explain everything?) He finally managed to use his ring to summon an earth elemental and drive the little cookie making demons off. But they captured his unicorn.
- So now he has to use spellpower to get to work. Bottom line, things will be delayed 3 months or so.
- There is some good news though! A random comment by the cleric that was healing his wounds led him to realize how he could couple the hashing algorithm with one of the frozen planes of hell to reverse the computational thermodynamics of the process. This means that every time you find a share, you will also generate a few joules of electricity. With an SC mini-rig in the backseat you should be able to drive your Prius from San Francisco to New York without ever stopping for gas!
I know; some parts of this are hard to believe. But my source has been reliable in the past. And,
if you knew anything about semiconductor design and manufacturing, it's far more plausible than BFL's story.I remember being slammed as a troll back then, and being told BFL was going to ship in October, just you wait!
